AC adapter Dell 60W USB-C GaN Ultra Slim — compact 60 W USB-C power adapter

The Dell 60W USB-C GaN Ultra Slim AC adapter is a compact power adapter designed to deliver up to 60 watts of regulated USB‑C power in a thin, travel-friendly enclosure. Using gallium nitride (GaN) components, the adapter provides efficient power conversion with reduced size and lower operating temperatures compared with traditional silicon-based chargers. Its single USB‑C port supports charging of compatible laptops, tablets and smartphones and is intended for everyday and portable use where reliable 60 W USB‑C power is needed.

Advantages

The GaN-based design enables a smaller, lighter charger footprint while maintaining high efficiency and stable power delivery. The ultra-slim housing reduces bulk in a bag or briefcase and dissipates heat more effectively than many older chargers. With a single USB‑C output, the adapter simplifies charging by using a modern, reversible connector that supports up to 60 W for devices that accept USB‑C power delivery. The build balances portability and thermal performance for frequent travel and office use.

Suitable for

• Charging USB‑C laptops and ultraportable notebooks that require up to 60 W
• Powering tablets and 2-in-1 devices during work or travel
• Fast charging of smartphones compatible with USB‑C power delivery
• Use as a compact spare charger for office, home or on-the-go

Key specifications

• Output power: up to 60 W via single USB‑C port
• Technology: GaN (gallium nitride) for compact, efficient conversion
• Connector type: USB‑C (reversible)
• Form factor: ultra-slim, travel-friendly housing
• Thermal behavior: reduced heat generation compared with traditional chargers

How to use

Connect the adapter to a mains outlet using the integrated or supplied plug, then attach a compatible USB‑C cable between the adapter and your device. Ensure the device supports USB‑C charging and that its power requirements do not exceed 60 W. Charging begins automatically once the cable is connected and the adapter receives mains power. Disconnect the cable when charging is complete or if the adapter becomes unusually warm. Use the adapter with USB‑C PD‑capable devices to ensure proper negotiation of voltage and current.

Recommendations

For safe, long-term use, operate the adapter in a well-ventilated area and avoid covering it during charging to allow heat dissipation. Use high-quality USB‑C cables rated for the required power level. If your device requires more than 60 W, use an adapter with a higher rated output. Regularly inspect the cable and connector for wear and replace them if damaged.
